Its an ecosystem of large and small, general and specialized service providers. All vying for a piece of the market created when browsers / devices can communicate peer-to-peer WITHOUT a vendor specific download, and all the limitations that incurs. WebRTC is so much more than just voice and video communications between browsers. Put simply WebRTC implements some magic to set up a secure, robust, low-latency, p2p audio, video, and data pipe. And within that pipe anything can be sent, from measurement data from a monitoring device, through gesture and video data for a network-based game, to all the applications of communications within all the processes that now run over the internet. It’s extremely big! The WebRTC Global Summit will showcase some of these applications and give attendees a great idea on how WebRTC can build on revenue, the technical challenges as well as the solutions. I look forward to seeing you there!

He is in charge of E2E strategies in areas such as IMS and Service Network Evolution, mainly in subjects such as VoLTE, Unified Communication (RCS, webRTC, SDP, IP messaging), new service, opening to Third Party Developers. Patrice spoke at the 2014 WebRTC Global Summit and we are delighted that he will be able to share his thoughts on Next Generation Unified Communications at WebRTC Global Summit 2015. With that in mind we asked Patrice a few questions on WebRTC and some of the surrounding topics. Q How would you describe WebRTC to a person who has never heard of it? webRTC is an “opensource”, a tool allowing 3rd Party Developers and operators to develop, easily and without any need of plugins, voice/ video, messaging, content sharing apps on any browser. Has WebRTC been the disruption that was predicted when it was first developed and why/why not? Q Adding without any need of any plug-in the capabilities to have Real Time Communication (voice, messaging, content sharing) in any device that has at least a browser (i.e. a TV, an STB, a PC and so on) is for sure a relevant evolution. Exposing those capabilities to developers is allowing relevant innovation in the area of Real Time Communication (eHealth, eCommerce, Surveillance…). It also add capabilities of adding Real Time Communication anywhere (using WiFi, 4G…) in any device (tablet, TV…) without any need of SIM card. It also allows to be contacted on any portal, any Social Network without any need to provide his number i.e. keeping full privacy by just a simple click. Q What are you and your company doing to drive WebRTC forward? We are following constantly the relevant and needed (for an operator) evolutions of webRTC (inclusion of ORTC in IE, inclusion of relevant codecs, Push Notifications…). We are constantly studying the relevant Use Cases which are facilitated by webRTC (“Click-2-Communicate” is not the only usecase allowed by webRTC) and which can add relevant value to our VoLTE/ ViLTE strategy. We are constantly discussing and exchanging ideas with relevant partners in webRTC environment. Q If there is one, what is WebRTC’s killer app? webRTC is neither a service nor an End-2-End solution. webRTC is a tool that will allow innovative app. We see today quite often the presentation of apps such as Click2Call/Click2SMS, conferencing… but those services do exist since longtime. webRTC has surely facilitated a better QoE for users (for example, I could imagine the capaibility of being able to be contacted Annywhere, Anytime, on Any Device, from Anyone, being Anonymous via some small icon, flashcode on any portal, my Social Network, my signature…). Q What would your advice be to a developer wanting to integrate WebRTC into their products and services? webRTC provides really API allowing voice/video, messaging, content sharing. It will facilitate the Communication with and between the user(s). It brings opportunities in areas such a eHealth, eSurveillance, eCommerce. It improves the QoE for the users (simplifying and improving the Communication) Q What is the biggest hurdle for the progression of WebRTC? What is for sure is that webRTC is progressing so quick with regard to the features (codecs, consumption of battery…) that it integrates. From an operator point of view, the hurdle will remain the statbility of webRTC in browsers next year and also the Legal Interception requirements that an operator gets from the authorities. webRTC is a web model and authorities need to adapt their view towards this change of model. Q What are the most impressive companies in the WebRTC space? There are so many relevant companies in the webRTC space, not only the big “dinosaurs” of the current Telco space. What is relevant when selecting a company in such area is the agility of the Solution provided as webRTC is evoluting so quick. We have experimented the work with small partners bringing relevant innovative ideas in the webRTC space. Q What is the number thing you are looking forward to from next year’s Global Summit? What I do expect is really to see relevant webRTC apps (not only Voice/video session between smartphone and tablet, Click2Call, Conferencing solutions). I do expect to see relevant usage of webRTC APIs. From a “standardization” point of view, I really hope to see good evolution of webRTC in area such the wake up of webapps. www.webrtc-conference.com PLAN YOUR WEEK AT WEBRTC GLOBAL SUMMIT Saturday 11 12 + Sunday April Monday 13 April TAD HACKS Discover the latest ways to add communications to your application, service or business.

OVUM: ANALYST INSIGHT SARA KAUFMAN Senior Analyst Ovum GLOBAL MOBILE MARKET OUTLOOK: 2014–19 Global mobile subscriptions are forecast to rise by 1.8 billion between end-2013 and end-2019, from 6.7 billion to 8.5 billion, equating to a CAGR of 4.2% over the period and 28% in absolute terms. Asia-Pacific will be the biggest contributor to growth in subscription numbers, and will account for 53% of total global subscriptions at end-2019, and 55% of global net additions during the forecast period. Africa will see the most rapid increase in subscription count, with a CAGR over the forecast period of 7.4%.

To achieve this, operators are moving key capabilities, features, and access control off of devices and the network in order to be more centralized, accessible, and Webbased. This is evident in the abundance of cloud, OTT, and other service initiatives operators around the globe have launched, a trend that will gain momentum over the forecast period. But operators should be wary of the promise of big incremental revenue opportunities in RCS or VoLTE. Instead, they should continue to sell LTE on its very real benefits in terms of data services and to use RCS and VoLTE to future-proof their networks and improve the overall customer experience with service innovations, rather than thinking of them as new revenue opportunities. The real benefit of offering voice on the LTE network is that it allows for more efficient operation and thus reduced opex. We expect to see many more operators launch VoLTE services in 2014 and beyond as VoLTE-capable devices become more affordable and widely available to operators.
